Deal I'm Baltimore.


Deal I'm Baltimore.
BALTIMORE, June 2I-The bottom has
dropped out of Robert CARROTS big gas
deal, and the men who have been bulling
Consolidated Gas Company stock the last
three months are unloading at tremendous
rate.
Mr.. Garrett il generally belieyed 10 be
the principal operator and ia consequently
the heaviest loser. The scheme was 10 buy
a controlling interest in the old Consoli-
dated Company, which Mr.. Garrett was to
have handed over 10 the New York
Equitable operators, and then make terms
with the new Chesapeake Company, Of this
city, which has waged terrible war
against the old companies.
The new and the old compa lies are both
furnishing gas at fifty cents a thousand
feet and losing money all the time. IL
was TO end the war that Mr.. Garrett un
undertook to obtain controlling interest
in the Consolidated for the New York par
ties. There are many rumors as 10 losses.
One report pretty generally circulated Is
that Mr.. Garrett has lost over $200, 600 by
the drop.

Other Failures Caused by the Fidelity.

SPRINGFIELD, o., June 24.-Yesterday
the extensive firm of Whitley, Fassler &
Kelly, manufacturers Of Champion mowers
and Teapers, went into the hands of Will
liam N. Whitley as receiver. 1t being the
largest firm in the city, and next to the
largest makers OF reapers and mowers in
the country, the news in the community
was like a clap of thunder. The direct
cause OF the assignment is the failure of
the Fidelity bank at Cincinnati. Had
the Fidelity failure come at any other
time the firm would not have been at all
embarrassed. This and next month are
the months for the delivery of the work of
the year and the time when the firm has
to use large amounts of money. Six weeks
from now the firm would have ample
funds for all obligations. The firm does
an annual business Of 5000, 900, and this
has been most prosperous season. The
condition of affairs is not considered in
very bad shape and the embarrassment is
only considered temporary. The firm en-
ploys over 1000 hands.

Edward sneed Hanged at Independence,
Missouri.

INDEPENDENCE, Mo-, June 2i.-Edward
sneed was hung in the Jail yard here this
afternoon. He spent the morning in his
cell and was attended by three Catholic
priests and Sisters of Charity. He ap-
peared to be badly frightened during the
forenoon, but recovered somewhat, and
although he ate no dinner, stood the ordeal
Of the reading Of the death warrant fairly
well. At12:35 he appeared on the scaffold.
attended by priests, and after q very brief
religious ceremony, Jailer Hass, at 1888,
pulled the lever and the body shot down
and turned just once. There was not q
quiver or twitch, indicating broken neck.
At 1852 he was pronounced dead and was
cut down two minutes later. He was self
possessed on the scaffold. The body was
turned over 10 his sister.
THE CRIME.
The crime for which Sneed to-day suf-
fered death was committed in Kansas City,
near saloon called the "Blpe Front" at
the corner of Twenty-third and Orion
streets, July 20, 1895. He had been drink
ing nearly all day with n man named Har-
rison Loomis, and about 5 p. m. Loomis
started to go away; Sneed followed and an
alteration ensued, the nature Of which
was widely disputed. At any rate, In o
very short time Sneed drew revolver and
taking deliberate aim shot Loomis in the
right lung. The victim staggered half n
block and fell, dying in q few minutes
Sneed was given three trials and was con-
victed of murder in the first degree at each,
but the Supreme Court reversed two Of the
cases on technical grounds. A desperate
effort was made by Sneed's friends to save
him, but Gov. Marmaduke refused to in

muring short prayer the trap was sprung.
His neck was broken and death followed in
six and one-fourth minutes. He was cut

The crime for which Blunt suffered the
